Reservation and Sports Quota
Article 14 of the Constitution of India protects all persons from discrimination by the legislative and the executive organ of the State. “State” is defined in Article 12 as including the Government, and “law” is defined in Article 13 as including any order. Article 16 (1), which takes its roots from Article 14, particularizes the generality in Article 14 and identifies, in a constitutional sense, "equality of opportunity" in matters of employment and appointment to any office under the State. An order passed by a Court of competent jurisdiction, after adjudication on merits of the rights of the parties, binds the parties or the persons claiming right, title or interest from them. Its validity can be assailed only in an appeal or review. Its validity cannot be questioned in subsequent proceedings.
